Why did you play your deck and are there any changes you would make?I played it at the Invitational and went 7-1 and the deck felt great. Should possibly play the 4th Crater's Claw, card is great.

Why did you play your deck and are there any changes you would make?It's the best Elvish Mystic Deck and I know how it works intimately. I think more plummets would have been great and possibly a 4th Xenagos.

How is the popularity of G/R reflected within your deckbuilding?It was annoying playing a linear deck with a target on it's head, but I felt comfortable playing my bad matchups.

Why did you play your deck and are there any changes you would make?Been rocking Nykthos since it was printed because it lets me play EDH in Standard. I swapped a Hornets Nest for a second Mistcutter Hydra, and didn't see an Island all day.

How is the popularity of G/R reflected within your deckbuilding?This deck should probably be G/R but I don't own those cards. :(
